Just as a side note, you should all watch Requiem for a Dream. Such a good movie... and its really shows what can happen (if you haven't seen me, its not a preachy movie at all... its just an amazing film).

Maybe you think it shows "what can happen" because you've never used before. The movie is unrealistic and unfair towards drugs and should not be taken as anything other than "what can happen if you are really fucking stupid and have severe emotional problems and get involved in drugs/worst case scenario".

By the way, it's not "brave" to take a risk and try something new. ... It "stupid" not to learn from your own mistakes or the mistakes of others.

I agree.

And it's not that there are so many success stories by drug users that you just never hear about; it's that there aren't that many. Drugs WILL fuck up your life.

I disagree that "drugs WILL fuck up your life". You also cannot expect to know every story of every drug user ever. That is ridiculous.
